MOROCCO - PAPER CUTS (PROMPTS)

Scene 1: Chefchaouen, the blue stair street in the morning

Paper-cut collage illustration in the exact style of the reference image: flat layered cut-paper shapes with soft drop shadows, torn and scissor edges, matte paper texture, muted documentary palette. View up a narrow stair street in Chefchaouen in the morning: whitewashed walls painted powder blue rising on both sides as flat paper planes, a flight of blue stone steps climbing to one arched wooden door at the top in the centre, three clay flower pots on the steps on the left, the Rif mountain as one paper plane above the rooftops. A pale gold sun disc and cut-paper cloud strips. Light from above right, soft. No other elements. Palette: powder blue, indigo, cream, terracotta. 16:9.

Scene 2: Marrakech, the Koutoubia at dusk

Paper-cut collage illustration in the exact style of the reference image: flat layered cut-paper shapes with soft drop shadows, torn and scissor edges, matte paper texture, muted documentary palette. Wide view of Marrakech at dusk: the Koutoubia minaret rising tall in the centre with its square tower and green-tiled top, the old city walls as flat rose paper blocks behind it, the square as one flat sand plane in front, three palm trees on the left, the Atlas mountains as one paper plane far behind. A large orange sun disc and cut-paper cloud strips. Light from the right, warm. No other elements. Palette: rose pink, sand, mint green, sunset orange. 16:9.

Scene 3: Sahara, the Erg Chebbi dunes at sunset

Paper-cut collage illustration in the exact style of the reference image: flat layered cut-paper shapes with soft drop shadows, torn and scissor edges, matte paper texture, muted documentary palette. Wide view of the Erg Chebbi dunes in the Sahara at sunset: one great sand dune with a sharp crest rising in the centre, farther dunes as layered orange paper planes behind, a flat sand plane in front, one camel with a seated rider in a blue robe standing still in profile on the crest, small against the dune. A large red-orange sun disc and cut-paper cloud strips. Light from the left, warm. No other elements. Palette: orange, ochre, cream, indigo blue. 16:9.

Scene 4: Ait Ben Haddou in the late afternoon

Paper-cut collage illustration in the exact style of the reference image: flat layered cut-paper shapes with soft drop shadows, torn and scissor edges, matte paper texture, muted documentary palette. Wide view of Ait Ben Haddou in the late afternoon: the mud-brick ksar with its towers and stacked earthen houses climbing the hill in the centre, the granary tower crowning the top, the river as flat pale blue water planes in front, a line of palm trees on the near bank, dry hills as two paper planes behind. A large mustard sun disc and cut-paper cloud strips. Light from the left, warm. No other elements. Palette: clay red, ochre, pale blue, cream. 16:9.

STYLE
Paper-cut collage motion graphic. Every element in the attached image is a separate flat cut-paper layer with torn edges, a soft drop shadow and matte paper texture. Documentary title-sequence feel. Colours, shapes and composition stay exactly as in the attached image. NOT smooth 3D, NOT glossy, NOT photoreal.

REFERENCE
The attached image is the final frame. The video ends on this exact composition; only the three living-hold motions keep moving.

CAMERA: ONE STATIC SHOT, NO CUTS
Locked-off camera, no zoom, no pan, no parallax. 16:9.

TIMELINE (5 seconds)
00:00-00:00.3  Only the torn teal paper sky, nothing else on screen.
00:00.3-00:00.9  The gold sun disc rises into its place top right; the torn white cloud strips slide in from the left and right edges one at a time and settle.
00:00.9-00:01.5  The Rif mountain planes rise from the bottom of the sky, farthest first, each settling with a tiny paper wobble.
00:01.5-00:02.2  The blue house walls slide in from the left and right edges, back wall first, with their tiled roof edges and windows.
00:02.2-00:02.9  The arched blue door with its white frame drops alone into place at the top of the street and locks.
00:02.9-00:03.7  The blue stone steps lay down from the door to the bottom edge, one step at a time; last, the three clay pots with their flowers pop in on the left steps, top pot first.
00:03.7-00:05.0  LIVING HOLD, 1.3 seconds of natural motion. The composition is complete and nothing changes position. Three clearly visible natural motions: the flower heads sway a little, the sun disc glow breathes softly, the cloud strips drift very slowly. They keep moving through the final frame; the picture never freezes.

AVOID
Camera movement, cross-fades, morphing, elements changing shape or colour, extra elements not in the image, people walking, vehicles moving, text, watermarks, music, a still or frozen final second.
